Very nice! I used to have a high polish SBH but I’d never seen a high polish Redhawk. Thanks! I did a little bit of research before I got this one in found that they did a small run of high polish RedHawks in the mid-90s. This one came with the original shipping carton with the G prefix in the model number that indicates it's a factory finish. When I first saw it in the used case at the LGS, I figured someone had just gone nuts with a tube of Flitz on it. My 5 1/2 inch Redhawk ia blue, with fake ivory grips. I think I like yours even better.

Warhawk, what brand of grips are those fake ivory ones? Does the palm swell thickness match factory Redhawk grips?

Warhawk, what brand of grips are those fake ivory ones? Does the palm swell thickness match factory Redhawk grips? I have no idea, I picked them up on EBAY and have never seen another set like them. No markings as to who might have made them. They are very close to the dimensions of the factory wood grips. I have wondered if they aren't from a special edition?

I've been wanting to replace the grips on both of my redhawks, but I can not make up my mind on what I want. The factory grips just don't fit my hands.

I posted earlier that mine used to wear Eagle Elk. Really liked the look but just too thick for my hands.
